This article is the sixth and final part of a series on building a browser-based dinosaur runner game with Deno. It focuses on implementing observability by adding structured JSON logging and custom OpenTelemetry traces …
This article outlines a structured workflow methodology for AI coding agents, emphasizing the use of "plan mode" for complex tasks, strict verification before task completion, and continuous learning through a lessons lo…
In 2015, Twitter's development team needed to replace the "favorite" star icon with a "like" heart icon, but the complex 16-element animation for the heart was too resource-intensive for low-end mobile devices. To solve …
A set of real-world usage habits compiled by the team behind Claude Code, which have been consolidated into a single file called `CLAUDE.md`. The file outlines a structured workflow for AI-assisted coding, emphasizing pl…
Autonomous multi-agent workflow for OpenCode that takes a Linear issue ID and automatically plans, implements, tests, and opens a draft pull request without user interaction. The workflow uses five specialized agents—inc…
This article provides a companion guide to a YouTube video reviewing OpenClaw after 50 days of use, detailing 20 real-world workflows with copy-paste prompts. The prompts cover automations like a daily morning briefing t…
Here is a factual summary of the article: OpenCode constructs the LLM's system prompt by combining dynamic environment data (model name, working directory, date) with a provider-specific prompt file selected based on th…
This article provides a guide for configuring the Frigate security camera software to use a Hailo AI coprocessor (such as the Hailo-8 or Hailo-8L on a Raspberry Pi 5) for object detection. The author details the installa…
Railway's Open Source Partner Program, which allows independent open source maintainers to monetize their projects by publishing deployable templates on Railway's platform. Maintainers earn a 25% commission on every depl…
This article explains the `System.Diagnostics.Metrics` APIs in .NET, focusing on the distinction between "observable" and "normal" instruments. For normal instruments, the application (producer) actively emits metric val…
Railway engineer Phin developed a feature called Network Flows, which uses eBPF to provide real-time visualization of traffic between services, eliminating the need for traditional tools like tcpdump. The feature was cre…
The article argues that building software without architectural oversight, similar to constructing a skyscraper without an architect, leads to structurally fragile systems with increased security risks. It warns that rap…
`microgpt.py`, a minimal, dependency-free Python implementation of a GPT (Generative Pre-trained Transformer) model for training and inference. It includes a complete autograd system, a character-level tokenizer, and a t…
